4 | Ovulation | Only side effect was a headache one day with fullness in the tummy feeling. The reward far outweighs the risks. | Be Positive. Clomid is just the start of options for infertility . 2 months of clomid 50 mg. Blood test shows ovulation but no pregnancy. Asked my doctor to send me for a follicle count. I wanted to know for myself what the clomid is doing. Before clomid, only 3 follicles on one side, zero on the other (normal sb 10-15 on each side). | F | 33 | 2 months | 12/29/2006 | 2 | infertility | blurred vision, loss of appetite, mood swings (anger and crying), and within 30 days of each cycle gained 5 pounds. Gained a total of 10 pounds over 2 cycles which will not come off even with running 5 days per week and eating 1200 calories per day. | F | 30 | 2 months | 12/27/2006 | 2 | PCOS - anovulatory | Nasty headaches, nausea, mood swings, bloating, lack of appetite, increased breast tenderness, depression, increased sensitivity to odors. | After taking Provera to induce a period since I don't have my own, took 50mg Clomid on days 3-7. After the last pill day I started started experiencing horrific headaches that most OTC analgesics don't help. Aside from the typical PMS symptoms I have a lack of interest in daily life, and all I want to do is sleep all day. | 5 days | 12/24/2006 | 5 | anovulation, infertility | ttc for 16 months now, this is month 1 on clomid - have only had 3 periods on my own since going off the pill. Before clomid, I took estrogen for 1 month and progesterone for 10 days after having a hysteroscopy to correct a sub-septate uterus. The side effects (emotionally) of the clomid were EXTREMELY mild compared with the estrogen. I really didn't notice any while I was taking the drug. With the estrogen I had night sweats, severe mood swings - with the clomid I didn't really notice anything like this. I have gained 5+ lbs. in <1 month, but I don't know if that is related... I don't know for sure that I ovulated, but I did have the temperature spike at cd 15, so I'm hopeful. I'm on cd 23 now and had a serum progesterone test that I'm waiting to get results from. cd 22 started breast tenderness, SLIGHT nausea - can't imagine that pg symptoms would come on this soon, but I'm hopeful :) | I would DEFINITELY take it again (but hopefully don't need to!) | F | 23 | 5 days | 12/16/2006 | 5 | anovulation, infertility | ttc for 16 months now, this is month 1 on clomid - have only had 3 periods on my own since going off the pill.

Now that I'm off it, the depression has mostly lifted. | F | 35 | 5 months | 12/1/2006 | 5 | annovulation | the first month i took clomid i had very bad cramping pains. the doctor checked to see if my ovaries were having a bad reaction to the medicine but everything was fine. I have had horrible hot flashes every round of clomid and on the third round i became pregnant on the 50mg days 5-9 but it turned out to be an ectopic. I was off clomid for a few months now I'm back on no success round 4 currently on round 5 hopefully it works since i only can take 6 cycles. no blurred vision but i tend to be more moody. maybe because the hot flashes are uncomfortable. | overall i think clomid is great. i never get periods and have been trying for two years so the fact that we were able to concieve at all even though it was an ectopic was a great accomplishment. | F | 25 | 5 months | 11/27/2006 | 1 | Infertility | Constant Blurred Vision, dark spot on eye | Taking Clomid to increase sperm count.

On 4th cycle at 150mg, I had some vision issues that happened on day 3 - something that I could describe as light flashes. My doctor said to see an opthamologist and that it had nothing to do with me taking clomid. ??? | If acupuncture could do what the clomid is doing, then I'd be off it in a second. | F | 39 | 4 months | 11/3/2006 | 1 | One tube removed due to ectopic | blurred vision, slight headache, very bad mood swings | this is my third month using clomid. first two months did ovulate but did not get pregnant. this is my last try. dont expect anything different. | F | 30 | 5 days | 10/10/2006 | 4 | to get pregnant | hot flushes, nausea, mood swings, needing to go the loo alot | I have now been trying for a 3rd baby for 2 years and have been taking clomid for the last 6 months and and day 18 in my cycle but not hopeful of a pregnancy.

I am giving up on clomid because the nausea and loss of appetite have been unbearable I have lost too much weight. I had many tests done and it was found I have gastritis, inflammation of the stomach. My physician, GP and naturopath reckon clomid caused it somehow. I am around day 45 now no period but the nausea has gone and the headaches have only just subsided and my appetite is better, still getting cramping though. | F | 26 | 5 months | 9/6/2006 |
